The Oberoi family were at the dining table and happily enjoying their dinner. Shivika were teaching their young kid proper dining etiquette. Annika was against as she believed that a kid need to grow in a discipline free environment. On the other hand, Shivaye believed in strict parenting so his child can get all the love that he was deprived of as a child but also carry on the Oberoi name. Rudra and Bhayva were not at the table which was unusual for their couple. Jhanvi calls them downstairs and both of them come together. R: Be careful when you…

Gauri walks to the lunch room when she saw the notice board. There was a new note there and she goes up to read it. Attention: From on, employees are free to wear whatever they would like in this professional environment. There have been several misunderstandings where people have always thought that the western clothing is ideal in this environment as we are fashion designers. However, fashion is not in what clothes you wear but how you wear it. Gauri smiles at the notice board and looks at the camera. G( Thinking): Thank you, boss. I hope you are watching…

Hickeys are mentioned here so if you feel uncomfortable, please do not read this chapter. It is morning. Om goes to her room and Gauri is facing the mirror. As soon as she notices him in her room, she quickly cover her neck. Om knew she probably had a hangover so he brought an egg concoction. O: Do you remember what happened yesterday? G: I do not remember anything. (She massages her forehead) I woke up with a really bad headache. O: Here take this. It will help you with your headache. G(looks at the contents in the glass): What…

Om runs to the car and see his car lights blinking with all the doors open. He checks inside and Gauri was not there. O(panicking) Gauri! Where are you! (Thinking) Why did I tell her to stay in the car? A drunk person usually does the opposite just to show their rebellion. And with Gauri, who is known for her rebellious behaviour, she will not listen to me. Om sees a man by the stall and he said that she went this way (pointing right) Om walks for a kilometre and still cannot find her. In frustration and worry, Om…

It was Gauri’ first day at DF (Designer Fashion) industries and she was excited. She walks in with a yellow salwar and she notices that everyone is giving her a weird look. She goes to her office and hears a girl talking to her friend. Girl: I cannot believe she is wearing that disgusting salwar. This is a designing company and she should wear something modern. G(Thinking): What do these girls know about what I like to wear? I cannot say anything as I do not want to rub people in the wrong way? I cannot change because of these…

Then he gets a call. It was not from Gauri but from Ritik. R: Hello sir. This is Ritik O: I know who you are. Where is Gauri? Is she okay? R: Sir, there is a problem. (A girl was screaming in the background.) O (He hears the screaming and finally hears his name, Omkaraji!!): That was Gauri right!! What did you do to her? Is she fine? R: She is drunk. Someone spiked her drink and was about to take her out but I stopped her. Can you please take her home? Om quickly ran to his car and…

The next round was the designing round. Their candidates were given a design and the materials associated to the design. They had to use the design to make the dress. And then present the dress to the panel. Gauri completed the task and it was her turn to present. The dress looked like an exact replica but then one of the panelist noticed a major mistake in it. Panelist(P): This stitch was supposed to be this long but you made it even longer. You did not follow what we asked. We are a multinational company and we cannot have a…

Gauri hesitantly goes to Dadi to ask her something. She sits beside her and watches Dadi read a book. Dadi notices that Gauri wants something. D: Gauri, do you need something? G: Permission. D: Permission for what? G: There is a big party happening at school and I want to go. But, I need permission from you. D: In this house, you can do whatever you want. You just tell me where you want to go and leave. I trust you so you do not need to ask me for permission. Gauri gets ready in her usual salwar and goes…

Om heads back to his room and hears a girl’s laughter. She was laughing really loud and it did not even seem like she did not care. It was also very contagious. As soon as you heard it, you would also be smiling without even knowing why. Om follows the noise and heads to the pool. He sees a girl in white salwar sitting on the edge of the pool kicking water. Beside her, in the pool is a little boy, making jokes. It was no other than Gauri. G: You are so funny. Who told you this joke? B:…
